Research direction

Start with the Spark ML guide linked in the issue and choose one unchecked abstraction, transformer, estimator, or evaluator. The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, so first locate the existing typed implementations for completed items and their test structure. Done means implementing the selected Spark ML equivalent and updating this checklist.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
